I think we should start looking at alternative

steps to reduce reliance on usernames and passwords.
What "steps" do you refer to, or is this intentionally vague?
Disallowing usernames and logins?
Two-step authentication/verification?
Something else?

from what i could read and parse:
use less of external things like skype and google accounts so that
there is only 1 username for everything
The solution to stolen credentials is to combine all credentials so
that
single credential can control everything?
